The only issue I have with the loveliness of 7 or so conferences is the almost certain possibility of repeated demos. Ubisoft will be showing Assassin's Creed at at least 2 conferences, Squeenix will probably show off some of their games at potentially 3 conferences (Their own, Microsoft/Sony, PC thingy). I hate this during E3, really drags excitement down watching a slightly different demo of a game you've already seen.

Hopefully this can be mostly avoided.

Good point. 100% agree.

Been informed E3 judge's week should be May 18-21.

 

[LegalEagleMike]

Been informed judge's week should be May 18-21.

That should cover most of what has already been announced and dated right?

 

[Lakitu]

Been informed E3 judge's week should be May 18-21.

Wow, that's very soon.

Just so I'm sure, it's just stuff that's playable on the show floor that's going to be there? Or does it include gameplay demos aswell?

Mostly what's playable. Was told first parties will not be there.

No UC4

 

[I-hate-u]

No UC4

I would rather them skip E3 and focus on the game. Maybe just throw a SP and MP trailer for the conference.

No UC4

Was Uncharted ever publicly playable at E3?

So lots of awards for battlefront and rainbow six then.

 

[I-hate-u]

I believe they had single player hands off demos by the devs for the press, but they did have multiplayer demos before for public, right?

I dunno, i expect playable demo for the press..
& what about Until Dawn ?

No first parties this time. Neither MS, Nintendo or Sony. What is shown at E3 Judges/Pre-E3 typically only makes up 25%-30% of the games announced/playable at the expo itself. The presence or absence of a developer/publisher at this week is not indicative of the strength of their presence at E3.

At its most practical, E3 Judges Week is a useful headstart for news outlets to get many previews written up before E3 starts. The embargo used to be the Tuesday morning of E3, but since it's not a requirement, game publishers have staggered their embargos from mid-May to E3, much to the disappointment of overworked editors.

Ah I got it, thanks
Guess we should expect a lot of previews after next week

Would something like Fallout 4 be there? Obviously it isn't announced yet but we know it's coming and it's rumored to have a 20-30 minute gameplay demo. Maybe some things will end up leaking out around then (which would probably deter Bethesda from having it there in the first place)

 

[SeanR1221]

Will Vita get a mention at the Sony conference?

Lol

Last year it was 2 1/2 minutes....in 2013 4 Minutes !

If youre lucky it will be 1 minute this year ;(

 

[LiquidSolid]

It's hidden in the FF Type-0 rated for Vita thread but the Brazillian classification agency recently rated XCOM+ and Civilization Revolution 2+ for Vita (well, Civ Rev 2 was for PSP but that seems like a mistake), so I think we might see a little Vita love from Gio Corsi.

 

[Vibranium]

Just hope it's the exact opposite of what RE has been for the last ~10 years.

As a classic fan I think the only way for another REmake is a spin-off game. I hope the next budget title isn't Revelations 3 but a claustrophobic old-school RE. The HD remaster got to around a million sales, it can still sell without AAA money behind it.

I don't like how Capcom calls Revelations survival horror, I think the games are really good but they are not that.

 

[Lucreto]

Do PS2 classic games play on Vita? Suikoden 3 being rated in Europe has me excited and I would rather play it on the Vita than PS3.

With Morpheus coming, it's just going keep getting pushed aside even more.

Nope.

"Please enjoy our outsourced port of Resident Evil: Revelations 2 for the Vita, now then onto PS4..."

Actually i think E3 is too soon for us to see new UC 4 Material. They delayed the game for 2016 & i think they want to show us the Game, when its ready (graphically on an almost finished level) to make people go crazy

No mention of Bethesda there.

So that judges Week is an small event, where certain journalist already get to see the Third Party Games from the E3 ? Games like COD,AC,Battlefront,Division etc....
Will there also be exclusive Third Party Games & new announcements like Tomb Raider?

 

[Kyoufu]

I hope they waste no time on a dead system. There's so much content to show this year that I'd be very annoyed if they padded the conference with stuff like Vita. Sorry Vita fans. You'll always have TGS.

 

[Lucreto]

I hope Sony's conference is longer this year to make up the extra wait until Paris Game Show. 3 hours would be nice like PlayStation Experience.

That's a lot of content. Considering the fact that Sony actually participates and shows significant content in other events like Gamescom(aka Paris this year), TGS and now also PSX - damn.... for the company with no games.

 

[Coolwhip]

What date and time is Ninetendo's video presentation?

The console manufacturers haven't announced details on their presentations yet.

PlayStation Experience wasn't even 3 hours.

I have Enemy Within but have never gone back to play it since I spent so much time with Unknown. If this is true.... This changes everyhing

 

[jhmtehgamr20xx]

Yeah. A eulogy.

 

[Armadilo]

Why has Nintendo not said anything about what their going to do at E3 ? like two weeks ago people were predicting that they would say something then like they did last year by announcing the E3 Direct ?

Lol you guys.

I would like to see remote play become official for non Sony tablets and phones (I know you can do a workout around) and for iPhone and iPad (with mfi controller support since you can't link a ps4 controller)

For the most part. There is often times a few unannounced things that can be there, but nothing like a Fallout 4 or similar. Most of the companies save those for the conferences.

That's nice to hear. Less chances of leaks.

I have this feeling that we're gonna see a new F-Zero for Wii U this year. I feel it in my bones.

 

[Kyoufu]

I feel like we'll see a new 1080 Snowboarding before a new F-Zero.

 

[LegalEagleMike]

I need lots of new things for Wii U. Zelda delay hurt.

 

[Pachimari]

I want to see:

- New games announced for Nintendo 3DS. Wouldn't mind seeing some N3DS exclusive ports of games like Mario Sunshine.

- Microsoft to reveal games that catters to me, because I'm still not tempted by Xbox One. A cool Rare platformer could help.

- Remasters of Heavy Rain and Final Fantasy XII.

But my eyes will mostly be looking at Nintendo 3DS this time.

Are Nintendo having a conference this year or are they doing the Nintendo Direct again?

 

[Regiruler]

MS: 7 exclusives
Sony: 6 exclusives
Nintendo: 4 exclusives

All big or go home

Nintendo's output is almost solely exclusive. MS and Sony aren't going to have more of the one thing nintendo has for their console.

 

[Kjellson]

I feel like we'll see a new 1080 Snowboarding before a new F-Zero.

Fine by me! I'd LOVE a new 1080!

I need lots of new things for Wii U. Zelda delay hurt.

I also think a new Metroid wouldn't be impossible. Prime 4 perhaps.

 

[Spieler Eins]

I hope Sony's conference is longer this year to make up the extra wait until Paris Game Show. 3 hours would be nice like PlayStation Experience.

I can't remember the last time the 2 hours were justified, so to compensate for no GC, they might instead just use the time they have at E3 for proper content through the whole thing instead of doing the usual filler.

 

[tiebreaker]

Time to do Nintendo...

For Wii U:
- Mario Maker
- Star fox
- Xenoblade Chronicle X
- Pokemon Spin off
- Smash bros new Characters
- Animal Crossing U

3DS:
- Bravely Second
- Fire Emblem if
- Yokai watch

 

[Rubixcuba]

The console manufacturers haven't announced details on their presentations yet.

They all leaving it a bit late this year no? Don't we normally have dates/times by now each year?

 

[pharmboy044]

Mostly what's playable. Was told first parties will not be there.

So I guess we won't have any first party game vying for "Game of E3"?

 

[Blues1990]

I don't know. Perhaps some unexpected surprises?

 

[GnawtyDog]

Up to each publication really...

 

[blakep267]

If you count what we already know MS has, they already have 7

-halo 5
-Forza 6
- Quantum break
- Crackdown
-Scalebound
-Gears remaster
- Gears 4
+ unknown rare game

Im assuming the guy above meant Wiiu exclusives( the 3ds is of course gonna have more)
